Topic: Abel Adames Designer of PA Header Posted: January 17 2014 at 21:14 |
I prefer universities over collages.
What?

Ufff man! I am so f**king glad to know that. I also noticed that all these years it was not removed or replace. Thank you max and the team. I am assuming that the bands and artist never asked you guys to remove these images are copyrighted soon f**king glad! Weepa!

Actually Scott, that not exactly true: a few of us simply said that we didn't like it, a few said it was too busy, a couple of people didn't like the bright saturated colours, and I believe someone said it looked too dated. We were not "vocal" and we didn't give Abel a hard time over it. Max, and then Abel, asked for opinions, if they only wanted praise then they should not have asked at all. If he took it badly I can only apologise for expressing my honest opinion, most of us actually went out of our way to say it was just our opinion and not a criticism of Abel's skill.
But for the record, I don't like this TD collage either, but that's because I think only Edgar Froese should do Edgar Froese artwork and not because Abel did a bad job with Froese's material. |
that is correct dean. You are absolutely right. It was not the header. I apricoated your sencire opinions and I never token wrongly no need for apology from you I understand what you are saying about this collage, but as you probably don't see is that most of images of this collage and the main ones are not even his, but my own. I just incorporated TD within them.

Nice to see you back Abel. I had wondered a while back if you were still making your collages or not.

Hi rushfan4 thAnk you and I am glad you are still here. It was not the banner collage that cause me as that head bumping and grief as you putted. It was if I am not mistaken my few recent collages back them. I just felt they were not welcome Any more and enjoy as I was getting too much hateful comments. However that was on the past and I misses posting the others later on as I clearly remember how some member waited eagerly to what I was creating next.
I missed the forum.

Not really a fan of collages no matter who makes them, but you clearly enjoyed making these and that's the important thing I guess.
